Just put the Continentals on my '19 GLI. Happy with them so far. they are top rated by Tire Rack customers. Replaced Michelin Pilot Sport which was very good on wet roads. Dumped the Hankooks not long after buying the car. Awful tires.

Pros: Continentals top rated, Michelin very good wet
Cons: Hankooks awful
Vehicle: Volkswagen

+1 for CC2’s.

Great all around tire on my M3 LR AWD 19” w/Boost in every area except range.

Sure it’s not a racing tire, but compared to the OEM Conti’s the wet and snow grip is sooo much better. Dry grip is almost as good. Durable, comfortable, great wear.

Pros: great wet and snow grip
Cons: hurts range

Continental DWS06+ is my choice after a lot of research.

This is on a Performance where I like traction. It is quiet and efficient.

Pros: quiet and efficient

Pros: longer tread wear
Cons: cheaper
Mileage: 36000 km

I put a set of these on mine (19”) about two months ago now. They’re doing well. My efficiency doesn’t seem to have been impacted much, they’re not really any louder than the OEM Continentals. They’re good in the rain, but they do perhaps have slightly less dry grip due to likely being a harder compound. Overall, I’ve been very happy with them.

Pros: good in the rain
Cons: slightly less dry grip

They lasted 18,000 miles on my 2015 Mazda 6 before I was down to the wires. I mean for the price you get a ..... tire. They are not horrible tires that will be unsafe or that will handle horribly, but they are budget tires that won’t last long and that are loud specially with age.

Pros: ok for the price
Cons: loud, won’t last long
Vehicle: Mazda 6
Mileage: 18000 km

They are very squirmy tires, a poor choice for a sporty car IMO. I have a set of Michelin PA4 snows that are definitely better dry performers than the DWS. I purchased the DWS once for an Audi A4, but I returned them in less than a week.

Pros: better dry performers
Cons: very squirmy tires
Vehicle: Audi A4
